San Francisco Dance Film Festival
Dance
This curated selection spotlights the breadth of creative imaginations at the leading edge of contemporary screendance. Interpersonal tensions, intimate portraits, exclamatory bursts of energy, and transformative emotional journeys unfold up close through the uncontainable impulse to dance. Filmmakers and dancers channel the expressive range of a psychedelic rock band, a throwback pop hit, a heartfelt singer-songwriter, a flamenco star, an underwater dancer, and the evocative power of bodies moving through landscapes and cityscapes.
